  • That being said, CSS frameworks are still wonderful, used right they can save a lot of time during early development by outsourcing the majority of design to the framework devs.

    That’s actually my intent with using a CSS framework. A personal project of mine reached minimum viable product statud status (phones…) recently, I included bulma, and used some of its components for stuff like menus and modals. It was definitely faster than writing everything by hand early on. But I also ended up writing my own CSS anyway, especially with the grid, which is the foundation on which my app works on (it’s a grid-based colour mixing app).

    I agree, I think CSS frameworks have a place for prototyping and we shouldn’t rely on them as a project moves towards a proper release 🤔

    Then again, some people might think the obfuscation in 20+ classes is somehow a good thing…frankly, I think it’s worse than inline styles. It’s basically obfuscated inline styles!








  • Natron is essentially the FOSS version of Nuke. And Nuke may seem overkill, but using it for simple tasks at first is a great way to familiarize yourself with the tool before using it for more complex ones.

    I used to use Nuke just to do some colour grading, or composite two animations together, back when I was in school for 3D animation. “Simple” stuff that Blender could’ve handled, but I liked how Nuke was designed specifically for composition and VFX. The focus helps, I find. Which made me happy that Natron is a thing (although I recall it having some stability issues with me).







  • Thanks for posting a better, more descriptive title than the original! And for including the YT link. TILVids doesn’t seem as accessible (lack of captions/subtitle) so having the option, although not idea, is better.

    I wish I could be all aboard with Flatpak, but I found out that there’s probably very few apps on there that actually works on a 32-bit OS (I’m trying to revive an old netbook). Probably part of that niche use case where Flatpak…falls flat[1]. So that netbook is stuck with the distro’s package maintainers.

    I do agree that there is a time and place for both the distro package managers and Flatpak/Snap and I wouldn’t want to see the former disappear completely. Even when Flatpak/Snap improves and have better coverage.


    1. I’ll see myself out 😶 ↩︎


  • I remember hearing about it but the prospect of not being able to replay it turned me off. At least, that’s what I gleaned over the years. I vaguely recall someone posting a picture of them framing the board when they were done with the game (campaign?)

    Maybe I got the wrong impression? I suppose I should take another look-see.

    I haven’t played that much Pandemic, really, so the mechanics have yet to get old for us 😅


  • I can’t help but love when subreddits do this in response to the threat of removing mods if they stay private. I remember there were some that were posting “sexy” pics of John Oliver. iPhone was limited to posting “sexy” pics of Tim Cook. Working with what they have in order to continue their protests. I like it😁

    It has malicious compliance written all over it 🙃
